[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I fear this because my daughter loves soccer but she's just not all that athletic. The thought of throwing away a prestigious college experience to go play on a horrible team at some nobody college is beyond stupid. Over half the players quit by their junior year. It's a pointless timesink.[/quote] I am confused by this. There are prestigious schools with sports teams that let kids walk on. There are highly competitive sports teams at colleges that have almost no reputation. If you want your kid to go to a prestigious school. And she wants a small school that will let her walk on to the soccer team. Then use that to narrow the field. Add in merit aid as a factor. There are thousands of schools in this country. You can find something with that combination, although if that's your priority you'll probably need to sacrifice else where (e.g. a school that's more rural or more urban or has colder weather than you want).
